A Polish man rammed his travel agents’ building with his car after his camel-trekking vacation in Egypt was canceled because of the recent revolution there.

He was so mad he could spit

Tom Lodkowski of Lubelski was so furious with his travel agent after he was denied a refund for the trip because his insurance didn’t apply for the political crisis that he drove his car into the shop’s front window, the Austrian Times[2] reports.

A spokesman for EuroTravel said they realized the 32-year-old was angry because the events in Egypt had resulted in the cancellation but they were more concerned that “he could have killed someone” when he took out the front of the building.

Police said Lodkowski just “flipped out” and “decided to get his revenge by driving straight into their shop window.”
